SIS provides NDT inspection for crude oil, refined product, and chemical storage terminals across the Gulf Coast and midcontinent. Our technicians perform API 653 tank inspections, piping examinations, and structural assessments that keep terminal operations compliant and safe.

From floor scans and shell thickness surveys to nozzle weld examinations, we deliver the conventional NDT methods — UT, MT, PT, and VT — required for in-service and out-of-service tank evaluations. Radiographic examination is available for new construction and modification welds.

Our crews work within confined-space and hot-work permit protocols, and every report is delivered in a format that satisfies both owner-operator and regulatory requirements.
